You Never Let Me Shine

You never let me shine
You wanted all of my light for yourself
Although I could not see it,
You drained light from me to fill your void.

You never let me shine.
You put me on a stage with darkness as a friend,
While you whipped, snapped, shattered my ego
Until my light dimmed too much.

Well, I feel bad for you, devoid of your light you can’t
Make on your own,
Devoured by your own jealousy,
You’re a black hole
Your dying past pulling you in.
I’m on to you.

You never let me shine
You never let me out of your sight,
You kept me locked away for so long
Making me a scared little ghost.

Well, I feel bad for you, devoid of your light you can’t
Make on your own,
Devoured by your own jealousy,
You’re a black hole
Your dying past pulling you in.
I’m on to you.

You never let me…

You never let me shine
You told me everyone would hate me,
But when I stepped on that stage without you,
They loved me more than you ever did.

You tried to steal my light,
I got it back, and I will let myself shine.
I will step out and shimmer again
and love myself like you never did.

I always will shine now…
